My adventures in knitting, spinning, dyeing, reading and living life the best way I know how.

Soctober finished and I finished some socks

I've discovered that one of the reasons I blog and Ravelry my finished objects as soon as they are done is that it is really hard to remember what I did two weeks ago!

So, I wrote about the dramas in starting The Colour of Magic Socks. Well, if finished them. I didn't run out of yarn, although I only had five grammes left, so it was closer that usual. I had to make the toes left and right footed, I've got small feet and I couldn't get the pattern done before the toe decreases started:

I'm happy whit how these turned out, they are comfortable and pretty and I just love the wyay the pattern and the yarn plays together.

I also knit the second Cadeautje slipper. I'm very happy with these and kind of want to knit a pair for myself, even though I love wearing my ugg boots when it's cold, but these seem to warm and wooly...
